There is something sinisterly dishonourable about honorable killing. Films on the theme, notably Nagraj Manjule’s Sairat (which does appear overrated in hindsight and which serves as the current film’s main source of inspiration) and its poor remake Dhadak have attempted to capture the sheer barbarism of the act of killing love by butchering lovers.

The coming Friday has believe it or not about 10 films listed for release. Some of the titles include #Yaram, Ghost, Kirket, Junction Varanasi, Love Shot, P Se Pyaar F Se Faraar, Jaqueline I Am Coming etc. ...... and Saif Ali Khan?s Laal Kaptan, and the last mentioned is the only one that can harbour some hopes as War will again be a major force to reckon with!
Checking out last week?s major release Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Farhan Akhtar and Zaira Wasim venture, The Sky Is Pink , the film managed good critical acclaim but the box-office returns were not in the same proportion. During the opening weekend, The Sky Is Pink netted close to 11 crore and that is not good enough. The Sky Is Pink is decent in the overseas (read as Us) grossing ?65,000 ?from UK and $295,000 ?from the Us, during the opening weekend (11-13 October).?
